I highly doubt Microsoft will change their policy on shared servers. It would be cool if they did change their minds because I am sure that would bring in a ton of new players to FFXIV.

I'd love for this to come out on Wii U.
Attempting to convince them otherwise has no side effect and if they did add support the game would be more successful, meaning more money for SE meaning better updates and more players to play with. I feel trying is definitely worth it regardless of what you feel of Microsoft and their policies, it's why people want to change them.

Petition for Microsoft to allow XIV with cross system play:

Coming to XB1? Doubt it. Not just with MS "no cross server" policy, but also look at their demographic. Did you not see E3? SHOOTERS!
The XB1 is the de facto for shooter bros. They tried to coax the rpg crowd years ago with Tales of, Lost Odyessey, Eternal Sonata & more.. But to no avail. They know where their core audience is. So don't count on it. Besides. Ps4 is better anyway. *grabs flame resistant shield*
Yah they need to rename themselves Micro-Shooter. I can only take so much Halo and CoD. I loved Lost Odyssey and it's a shame it languished on Xbox 360. XI did alright on 360 but I have a feeling it didn't have the impact M$ wanted. If we could get XIV on X1 it would be great but I can definitely do without the future "BOOM HEADSHOT!" Macros when Musketeer finally drops.Coming to XB1? Doubt it. Not just with MS "no cross server" policy, but also look at their demographic. Did you not see E3? SHOOTERS!

XI happened just before they changed their policies with no cross server. MS actually hated the fact that you did not have to pay for Live to play a multiplayer game on their system... like all of their other multiplayer games.
It wasn't about impact so much as M$ wanting money for live subs.
Heck I even bought an xbox strictly so my wife could play XI when her computer broke (because it was cheaper than a new PC). Never paid for live the entire time she played.
Cross platform will never really be something MS is going to invest in (based on my opinion from when I worked for MS) because they want it all for themselves. They don't want to share. They don't want to play nice.
Everything that's being happening lately with X1 proves you wrong though. Since the day X1 was revealed MS has done nothing else but backpedaling because of peoples complaints. Drop policy on used games, drop always online, drop kinect, drop live gold for third party apps. On all of those they originally stated they would not negotiate but they ended up doing just that because of the complaints.
So yeah, what they actually do is a bit different from what you assume they would do.
FFXIV for iPhone or Riot! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Microsoft wise up :P yea good luck with that. They did try to bring this game to X1 and Microsoft did not wanna play ball then why they play ball now??? Not to be rude to xbox fans but Microsoft rather there live members only play with other xboxlive members if this game was a fps this may work:P
